CSFD is working on a simplex repeater system for fireground ops. It is our talk around channel now but a new simplex 800 feq will be used that can be repeated to the BVWACS system. The repeaters will be on all front line engines, ladders, medics, and command units. The repeaters repeat back to the BVWACS on whatever channel the truck mobile radio is set that way the audio can be monitored around the city in dispatch and recorded.
We have had some close calls related to poor radio system coverage in the past few years. We have had great success so far with the testing of the simplex system.

Is Burleson County using P25 on their new frequencies?
burleson county new chs
not sure but it is supposed to be available in the future
not sure but it is supposed to be available in the future
So what tower(s) are they using if they are testing their digital channels?
they are not going to be going 700 - 800 just vhf and they aren't doing the digital yet its the future option
What frequencies are they testing on? All I've ever seen is 155.535.
151.15250000 & 151.32500000
Forgive me if this is a dumb question, but have they actually spoken on those channels? All I've heard is a bunch of beeping.
Thanks
Thanks
they have a few times but they are doing it slowly and its a voting system so its taking time. supposed to be done by June 1st after f the fq for one of the channels was to close to a neighboring agency and has to be changed.

I thought I heard p25 on some of the channels
When programming Brazos County P25 (sheriff etc) what site (towers) should be used? Bryan, College Station, Millican?
I programmed Bryan (police, fire) already and that I know is the Bryan Site (towers) but wasn't sure about Brazos County.

Brazos county sites
I've used all three in my scanner as the frequencies weren't the same and depending on which one will get a better signal for your location.

I'm in College Station. I guess Brazos Co Sheriff etc can and do broadcast on all those towers?
should be able to just add the channels to the site you already use and you'll get those channels.

Might want to program that one into your scanners and start listening for a new site to come on line. I don't know what that means for Grimes/Navasota users, if anything at all. But at least that fills in the communication gap across the county for Brazos county to Walker/Montgomery travelers if nothing else.

There are 2 sites almost ready to go active, the one behind the sheriffs office,and another in the north part of the county. All Grimes county law,fire,and EMS will be on the system in the first quarter of 2018. BVCOG and The City of Bryan gave about 200 radios to Grimes county to get them going.
Sounds awesome. Hope they stay in the clear!
